Colin Powell cites the last 6-7 weeks – handling of the economy, tone of the campaign, and mccain’s erratic selection of palin – as the deciding factors.
The endorsement comes in the waning seconds of this clip…

No surprise. About 98% of black people will be voting for Barack Obama. Yet, ironically they are the ones who are complaining about racism.
Obama is no Bill Clinton. Clinton is a de-regualtor just like John McCain. Clinton was the one who introduced NAFTA, which McCain supports.
Obama is more of a extreme leftist. $1 trillion in new spending, more government programs and interventions, sending welfare checks to 45% of the 95% of the people in his tax plan because 45% of those people don’t even get taxed.
Politicians like Obama are such pimps. They promise to spend a trillion dollars on you, but they don’t tell you that they are using YOUR MONEY!
Obama’s Black Liberation Theology is based on Marxism for black people, the foundations of Communism. Even Bill Ayers was an extreme leftist.
Our economy is very important, McCain is better for our economy. I hope people get educated before they vote.
“Tina,” if you think the country is going in the right direction after the last 8 years, please vote republican.
Nice job bringing race into Powell’s endorsement. I also like your use of pimp. Way to keep it classy!
Suddenly because Powell is endorsing obama he is not as evil as he used to be? Yet, Powell was the one encouraging the Iraq war claiming they had WMD. Anyone with intelligence knows that Powell is endorsing based on race.
98% of black people are voting for obama just because he is black. White people are split between obama, nadar, and McCain. Think about it.
The truth is this is a race campaign. The Democrats control the senate and congress and have the lowest approval rating in US history. The Democrats couldn’t even beat Bush in the elections thus why they are going after the black vote in the US, about 45 million blacks. Thus, why obama voted present over 130 times, avoided the tough issues, and never challenged his party leaders on senate to preserve his political career. Only 143 days on state senate when he decided to run for office.
The Democrats lost because the US is not a socialist/communist system. Americans fought against Nazi Germany, their socialist party, and communist USSR for decades, just to name a few.
Again, Clinton supported deregulation and introduced FTAs like NAFTA. That is why the US economy was strong during his administration. McCain also supports deregulation and fights for FTAs like NAFTA. These initiatives will help our economy. Our economy is very important, McCain is better for our economy. I hope people get educated before they vote.
US businesses create US jobs. obama wants to limit the growth of US businesses, which is limiting the growth of US jobs. If you increase tax on US businesses they will either just relocate to a lower tax country taking American jobs with them, pass the added tax cost to consumers or go bankrupt. GM and Ford can barely compete globally and obama wants to tax them more. The smaller businesses that are reliant on GM and Ford will also be greatly affected, destroying more US jobs.
The US is the land of opportunity not the land of equal outcome. Why should government take your money and give it to people who are already on welfare to spread the wealth?
Sorry everybody – we have an internet troll on our hands. Per the IP address associated with both postings, “Sarah” is the same poster as the first poster named “Tina.”
Regardless, if you’re happy with the last 8 years, please vote republican.
As if I should even waste time typing this – all politicians vote present. You vote present if you partially support a bill but it needs to be tweaked to earn your full vote.
Internet Trolls on the loose!
McCain is against Internet Trolls; Obama is for them. Your decision…
Okay, weak attempt; I’m ready for the vote already…getting burnt out on hearing the mud-slinging from both sides.
McCain/Palin ’08
Ryan THE Conservative
I’m as equally burnt out. But, thankfully my candidate isn’t down 10 points in the polls! hahahaha.
Obama is the Messiah…I’m sure he’s using his DIVINE powers to manipulate the polls…
Two words that are worth in my opinion 7 to 11 points…
BRADLEY EFFECT

Nobody wants 4 more years of the last 8 years. Reverse Bradley Effect.
Fear and Doubt abound, despite lib press…
Bradley Effect is ON!!!!!!!!!!
We agree to disagree; will know in approx. 2 weeks…

Whatever it takes…
It takes money and a ground force. The party is over…
Did Gm deserve the bailout? You Ask me I would say NO.. why? When Honda and Toyota were out inventing new cars, GM was busy boasting about its pride and Showing off its hungry hungry Daughter the Hummer
